Dear Friends,

I wish I could reply to you all individually, I know you will understand.

I am struggling to accept the loss of my Mom. It doesn't seem real or
possible.

I wish she did not have to spend her last six weeks in hospitals that
did nothing to help her suffering..we thought we were doing the
best thing for her.

On her last day, she was home with me, a hospice nurse, and an
aide. I hoped she would rally..but she wanted to go. She went in
her sleep. I am glad I got to tell her I loved her..many times, and
hold her hand.

When she was in her room, she pointed to the picture of her and
my Dad on the wall..she could barely speak at this point. I now
know she was telling me she wanted to be with him..and she is.

Thank you all for your kind expressions of sympathy and comfort.

Much Love,
Kevin

[TMIC] OT My Mom

2010-03-20 Thread Kevin Wolfthal


My Mom passed sometime during the night Friday night.

I am struggling to absorb this.

At least I had a few hours with her before she passed
because she was brought home from the hospital during
the day Friday.

I told her I loved her many times. She was in such a
weakened state she could barely nod, but she knew who
I was and what I was saying.

I thought..hoped I'd have a little more time with her,
but at least she is not suffering anymore.

Thank you all for your kindness during this difficult
time.

It is painful.

Kevin,

It looks like by bringing her home you allowed her to see that you
were ok, to share time with you, and then you let her go in the quiet
comfort of her own home.

I'm sure this is tough! But I believe you did the right thing and as
time passes you will be at peace with your loss. 

My thoughts continue to be with you.

Dear Kevin,
   I am so sorry for your loss, I can empathize with your pain.  I just 
lost my baby sister on the 22nd of Feb.  But she did not have to die, 
the ER staff treated her like crap.  She had a history of minor vomiting 
of blood from a small bleeding ulcer, plus passing blood from her bowels 
because of hemorrhoids.  When she went in that night she told them it 
was much much more than usual, and that she was having mild 
hallucinations.  So they sent her to the psyche ward with no 
examination, they sent he home the next day, and the next day she died.  
At the autopsy they found she had a pancreatic hemorrhage and was 
bleeding to death when she went into the ER.  A simple x-ray or sonogram 
would have showed the blood in her abdomen, but because she is a 
Medicare patient well one knows how they treat us.  And since it is 
a state owned and run hospital, they have it fixed so there is no way to 
sue them... Colorado is the place.  Their damned prisoners get better 
treatment than the elderly or disabled.. I am still so mad at them; and 
sad at the loss: I hadn't gotten to see her in over 20 years because of 
our disabilities and being unable to travel.  My younger brother is 
going through this with me, and we find solace in each other.  I pray 
for relief for you, and may God's Shining Countenance be with you and 
guide you.

Namaste,
Bernie in Texas

[TMIC] OT: My mom passed away today

2005-12-10 Thread JHarper33



We just found out this evening that my mom 
passed away this afternoon. She had had heart and other problems for years. It 
seems to have been a massive heart attack, though we haven't received final word 
yet. There was no warning, no shortness of breath, etc. -- just suddenly she was 
gone.We're in the midst of figuring out travel plans to and from Texas 
-- it looks now like we'll be leaving Mon. afternoon and coming back Thursday or 
Saturday. At this point it looks like the funeral will be Wed. At this point, 
also, it looks like my older two sons won't be coming with us, but my youngest 
will be.For those who pray, I have some specific prayer requests for the 
next few days. If you wouldn't mind praying, e-mail me off-list and I will send 
themLove,Barbara
